Maybe someday, some genius will figure out how to mount an 8" woofer in an HO scale locomotive. Until then, scale diesel sound will be no more than annoying noise.

Always great to see the units go through their paces as they move around some classic old boxcars and refrigerators. I always remember the long track closest to 3rd Street would get 40 ft boxcars for loading the spent grain from Pabst are there sure were a lot of Fallen Flags right up until the end of rail service. I do remember one other use for some of the small Milwaukee Road cars is that the shops here in the late 70s converted some to MOW bunk cars and possibly kitchen or bathroom cars. They were painted an oxide brown and I doubt if more than 12 were converted. While the SOO would have gotten them in the merger I doubt if any made it to theCP era
